Chapter 1316
Henry and Gardiner entered the ancestral temple.
The mountain stopped being a mystery to Henry and Gardiner after they figured out the truth.
While searching in the ancestral temple, they found out the two statues could be turned. After
turning both the statues for a full round, the floor they were standing on started descending.
The floor''s speed was fast. But there wasn''t any noiseing from the descending. Henry and
Gardiner could only hear the raining sound, which was created to cover up the unavoidable
mechanical sound. That''s the reason why people of Alvin League could shift the outlook of the
mountain when Henry was asleep.
While Henry and Gardiner were descending, the view in front of them changed.
They saw a huge science and technology base. Inside the base, there were numerous precise
scientific instruments. Henry also saw many screens were showing surveince video feeds.
Judging by what showed on the screen, Henry suspected that surveince cameras were watching
every part inside of the mountain.
An ancient shrine was located in the base too. A lifting tform was under the shrine. It could be
lifted on the top of the mountain anytime without raising suspicion.
At this moment, there was no one in the base.
"Sh*t, the base is huge. I guess those sons of b*tches have scooped the mountain totally hollow.
What metal are they using? It can actually support the weight of what remains of the mountain.
Alvin League did spend a lot here," Although this was not Gardiner''s first time getting down, he was
still shocked to see all these, "How much have they spend? Think about how much meat you can
buy with the money."
"Why don''t you build yourself a cattle? Get yourself a farm full of cows to eat!" Henry pouted. He
kept checking around.
"No one is around. What else do you want to see?" Gardiner lit another cigarette. He took out his
cell phone and wanted to take a selfie with the statue near the shrine.
"Do you think that people of Alvin League are rich and stupid? They wouldn''t scoop the mountain
empty just to y pranks?" Henry rolled his eyes, "I saw many Alvin League''s experimental
creatures outside. Some of them were not even fully developed yet. I think Alvin League sent those
out right after the experiment. I''m sure Alvin League''s geneb is here. It''s weird that with what has
happened up there, nothing special has been done here. By the way, where is that old freak?"
"I don''t know," Gardiner shook his head, "We fought. The old freak was beaten and ran away
injured. I didn''t go after him since I needed to look after all the kids."
While speaking, Gardiner took a selfie.
"I''ll change the time stamp as the day after tomorrow and post it then so I can get myself a couple of
days'' rest. What a smart and handsome person I am!" Gardiner praised himself.
"A good rest is better than anything else in the world," Henry agreed with Gardiner. He then
continued, "You are so lucky. I can only buy a couple of buildings for fun, and I get bored after a few
days."
Gardiner''s smile disappeared immediately. He tried to push down his anger, but still, he yelled to
Henry, "F*ck off!"
Henry and Gardiner checked every corner of the base, and nothing out of ordinary could be found.
But the more normal the base seemed, the more unsettled they felt.
Logically speaking, a defense mechanism should be implemented in a base like this. ording to
Henry''s knowledge of Alvin League, they wouldn''t abandon such a huge and well-equipped base so
easily. If they had to leave this ce, they would definitely destroy all the files before the
evacuation. But at this moment, everything just looked too normal for the situation.

"Let''s go and see what''s in here."
There were many doorways to different corridors around the base. Each corridor led to a different
location of the mountain. But all the doors were wide open.
Henry and Gardiner got inside one of the corridors. There were rooms along the corridor. Henry and
Gardiner could see inside of the rooms through the ss opening on the door. Those rooms were
all dorm rooms and storage rooms, and nothing special about them either.
At the other end of the corridor, there was another hall. It was a simr control room like the one
Henry and Gardiner first got in. The only difference was that the previous room was for controlling
the outlook of the mountain, and this one was for controlling machines under the mountain.
Through numerous surveince video feeds, Henry saw that Alvin Leauge had been drilling into the
earth. They had reached hundreds of meters below the surface.
Henry and Gardiner were staring at one of the screen.
The image showed on the screen made them frown.
Henry said, "Just as I expected, Alvin League set up a base here for stealing Antiquity Country''s
inheritance. If all the inheritance around the world undergoes great changes, as a country where all
the legends started, the inheritance of Antiquity Country would attract the most attention, and it is
located under the mountain!"
The ancient customs and methods were usually considered superstition. However, no one could
say that they were totally useless. It was very possible that hundreds of yearster when the
technology was so advanced that human illness could be cured by machine alone. But it didn''t
mean that taking medicine was an ancient superstition.
Mountain of the Gods wasn''t a name given by a contemporary person. The name had existed for
thousands of years.
The inheritance of Antiquity Country was located under the mountain.
"What is the inheritance of Antiquity Country?" Gardiner was curious and excited.
Unlike the legends of Yan Xia, all the legends of Antiquity Country were associated with Gods.
There was the God of all gods who controlled thunder, the invincible God of Wars, and the Sea God
who was the ruler of all water. They all have their reputation in legends around the world, and the
inheritance of Antiquity Country was associated with them.
The inheritance of Yan Xia only about the human beings that actually existed.
Henry and Gardiner found many pieces of research in this control room.
After read through the research, Henry said, ''Alvin League can''t open the door to the inheritance of
Antiquity Country because they haven''t found the way to break the spelling guarding it. They are still
looking for the key."
"Alvin League is ambitious. They even put their hands in the matters of Antiquity Country. What on
earth are they up to?" Gardiner frowned.
"Maybe they have told us through the title of their project, creating Gods," Henry took a deep
breath. He held up one of the research folders, "Read it for yourself. Alvin League believes that the
tombs of the gods are buried underneath, along with the descendants of the gods. They hope to get
the DNAs of the gods and study them. I think part of the reason they are excavating the mountain is
to find the DNA in the rocks."
